Why would they be sold cheaply because they are stolen? If the item is the same, then why wouldn’t the price be nearly the same?

- transcriptase 3y agoA discount moves the stolen items out of your possession much faster, reducing risk of being caught with them and need for storage.
- zztop44 3y agoIf the price were nearly the same, why would anyone choose to deal with criminals and expose themselves to some level of legal risk when they could get the same product (with a warranty) in a store?
- adolph 3y agoPeople "deal with criminals" all the time. They don't all wear an eye mask and striped shirts. Every buy choose something from Ebay or an Amazon seller because it was 5-10% less costly than conventional sellers?
- wjnc 3y agoYou get downvoted but are describing a nice trend. In the old days all you had were stores and poachers. Who was who was easy to tell and the poachers had to suffer a loss. In the modern days, where say novelty sneakers can be bought via innumerable websites the price difference between stores and poachers must have come down. A smart poachers sells stuff that fell of the wagon at retail via pop-up websites. Anything Amazon sells will have fallen of a wagon here or there.
